Excellent customer service and love that you do not have a consultation before hand. Easy to sign up just email staff using website and they will promptly respond and send an appointment link and ask for a sample photo of what you want. They were booked until July and my tattoo was definitely more detailed than I realized for walk in. Rod did an excellent job guiding me through the process. He had a sketch ready for me and asked if I wanted to change anything. It was perfect so of course I didn’t want to change the design :)
After the initial review of the sketch he stenciled the design onto my shoulder (picture 1) and began his work.
Highly recommend giving this place a shot. Very reasonable price as well (was thinking it would be around 400): actual cost was $325 for black and white tattoo on shoulder blade. This does vary depending on how long the design takes.
Thank you Rod and all at Heroes & Ghosts! You made this an excellent experience for my first tattoo.

Sam did great with my piercing. Awesome and clear communication. Made the experience much easier.
Colby did my minion tattoo and did such an amazing job. He took his time and paid good attention to detail. I’m in love with my new tattoo and really appreciate Colby’s effort in this piece!

Saw Joey for a double cartilage piercing, since my sister loved seeing him for her septum. He was very informative and considerate of what I wanted to get out of my piercing. I plan to transition to double hoops, and he positioned the studs so they would heal properly and allow the hoops to lay flat based on my ear shape. He was reassuring about aftercare as well, providing me his email in case I experienced any problems (which I haven’t).

I love getting piercings here! Cayla and Joey are both so sweet and inviting and every piercing I’ve gotten from either of them has been quick and easy. I have 10+ piercings on each ear and they still walk me through each step which I truly appreciate. If you want cute piercings with high quality jewelry come here!

I do not recommend getting pierced here. I got my nostril pierced a little over two months ago, and within a week had a bump start forming on one side of my piercing. One sided bumps are known to typically be angle bumps (nostril piercings must be done perpendicular). So, knowing this info, I consulted my piercer. I told them I didn’t mind having to get re-pierced, I know things happen and was confident they would be able to fix it by re-piercing (after removal & healing).
They didn’t think the angle was wrong and had the other piercer check it as well who agreed there wasn’t an angle issue. They said downsizing the post and changing from prong set jewelry to cabochon would help resolve the bump. When I got my jewelry downsized, I was surprised when they didn’t sterilize the new flat back labret or the insertion taper before putting it in. Unfortunately the bump didn’t get better—it kept getting worse.
With my bump only getting worse, I consulted 7 other piercers over the course of the next 2 months. Yes, 7. (Can you tell I really wanted this piercing to work out?) Every single one said my nostril piercing wasn’t perpendicular and what I had was indeed an angle bump. They all told me I would need to remove the piercing, wait at least 3 months, and have it re-pierced correctly.
With this info, I reached out again stating my concerns. I was brushed off, and told again the angle was correct and it must be irritated because of some other reason.
After consulting 7 other professional piercers, who all said the same thing, I didn’t trust their conclusion, and wanted it removed. I will get it re-pierced elsewhere.
I went to this shop after looking at both piercers portfolios, and not seeing anything alarming. Unfortunately they don’t show the angle of their piercings in their portfolios, so you can’t evaluate that prior to getting pierced. I spent well over $100 for this one piercing, and am very unhappy I had to take it out due to the angle.
